The rules: we can look at joseki dictionaries, but not at hidden comments.

That said, once we've moved beyond a given sequence I'd really appreciate any feedback on how it went. I've realized that for the players, the Malkovich game can get a little lonely.

I'm excited. Only one move and so many comments!

Just throwing it out there but I think it's cause the pincer variations can be quite sickening and give the stronger player the edge. The handicap books that I've read (Come Up to Shodan and Basic Techniques of Go) dedicate a lot of space to dealing with 3-4 and 5-4 stones as black. They can be tricky.

IMO, it's this: 3-4 stones have much more complex joseki just in general with more room for tricks and such than 4-4 stones, which have really simple joseki that it's pretty hard to mess up.

I intend to play this fairly normal joseki:

Which gives me a nice base and possibility to later attack his stone on D11.
